Samuel Umtiti on target as France beat Iceland

Samuel Umtiti was on target for France on Monday as they beat Iceland 4-0 in their Euro 2020 qualifier.

The World Cup winners were decked out in a special kit for the match to mark the French Football Federation’s 100th anniversary:

Umtiti got France off to the perfect start by nodding home Kylian Mbappe’s cross on 12 minutes to give the hosts the lead and celebrated in some style.

Umtiti is proving to be head and shoulders above the other French defenders when it comes to scoring for the national team.

4 - Samuel Umtiti has scored 4 goals with France since his debut in July 2016, at least twice more than any other Les Bleus' defender on this period.
